I had the pleasure of speaking with Olivier Laurent and having my work edited by Chelsea Matiash from TIME in the week after the Iowa caucuses to share my thoughts on covering a U.S. Presidential campaign for the first time. Not only was it great, as always, to talk with Olivier, but I really enjoyed having my work featured alongside two friends of mine, Mark Abramson and Natalie Keyssar, who also were covering their first campaigns.
